Both cemeteries are divided into sections, numbered above, by access roads. A new section is currently being added to Fancher to the east of the three sections shown above. Reference documents used for this compilation: 1935 WPA map and information - Fancher 9 acres, 40 veterans (some missed) Maple Grove 7 acres with 7 veterans Undated Plot map of Maple Grove Cemetery found in township archives Tombstone Transcriptions and Other Records of Delaware County, Ohio, Esther Weygandt Powell, 1972.

Cryder Genoa-Harlem Township Cemeteries, copied by Bud and Charlene Alward, Alice Heath Baker, George and Marilyn Cryder, Mary Reed, and Eleanor McCauley Worley, 1990, published by the Delaware County Genealogical Society, June, 1998. Cemetery Plot information compiled by Phyllis I. Davidson and Barbara L. Morrison for Harlem Township, 2005 Physical walk-throughs of the cemeteries in 2010. All sections were read a minimum of three times, but even so, there may still have been some things missed. And it wasn't always easy to transfer the original Plot layouts to rows. Rows were read from East to West and Graves were read from North to South in all sections.
